GOODNESS I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO THINK ABOUT THAT. when you get Navi you're supposed to get 3 months of XM service included. Sounds like you need to do some reading and less listening to your Dealer. Then when you are properly informed confront the Dealer with what you want changed.


And please no more CAPS typing. It's regarded as SHOUTING!

XM Ready audio system is pre-wired to accept the dealer installed accessory XM Satellite Radio hardware. XM service only available in the 48 contiguous United States.

So then I click on "Build and Price". Guess what? When I click on EX with Navigation I still get an option to add XM Satellite Radio as an Electronic Accessory. Price?

from Honda.com:
"MSRP $459
Installation costs not included.

Over 170 digital channels of music, news, sports, traffic, weather and entertainment
67 channels of music – rock, country, R&B, jazz, classical and more
Enjoy the most commercial-free music in satellite radio
Traffic and weather coverage in 21 major markets
Over 30 channels of news, sports, talk and entertainment
Digital sound for the best tonal quality available
Available everywhere, coast to coast wherever you go
Live original programming and call-in requests
$12.95/month is less than buying a CD a month
Vehicle-integrated installation for ease of use"

Wow! So many questions. I don't know where to begin....


1) CVT in an Si - Hell NO! No respectable Honda Engineer would put a CVT in an Si branded vehicle.

2) That goes for the EX too, I hope. Have you seen that commercial where the dude is looking at his hot girlfriend and he starts making revving noises because his new Maxima is CVT. That's shit is annoying, CVT that is.

3) The "problem" is probably best left to trained technicians at your local dealership. Point it out, have cash or credit card in hand, pay the secretary and walk away.
